On the way to pick up our passports, the vehicle started acting like it had a flat tire. We were on a very busy freeway. We knew we needed to get off to find a gas station. We saw a familiar exit and took it. As we were coming down the offramp, the vehicle acted like we had a tire blow out. It was a scary situation, with Jay using all of his super-human strength to keep the vehicle going straight.
After stopping the vehicle and noticing that all tires were perfectly fine, we realized that the tortion bar to the rear axle had severed. Wow! God had us covered though. As we were standing there evaluating the situation, the head of security for the university that we were parked in front of, stopped and asked if our vehicle was broken. Jay showed him the situation and asked if he knew of a welder.
We just happened to be parked in front of the maintenance part of the school and they had a welder there. Praise God! This really was an amazing situation. It's hard to put into words just how blessed we were to be stopped where we were and to have the right people at hand to help us.
The welder made the bar extra strong until we can replace it permanently.
After many hours we made it to the U.S. Embassy. This horse drawn carriage was parked across the street. Jayson and I want to ride one. On another trip. Our whole trip took us 7 hours. Traffic is amazing here!
